Porsche 928 S

Exterior
We can see with our eyes closed that the Porsche 928 is a 911 derivative: the bodywork has the same sloping roofline, but it is the details that make it a lot more modern. Note, for example, the round headlights that automatically fold back into the front at rest. A front that is extra long because of Porsche’s choice to put the power source in the front instead of in the back. And it is a large 8-cylinder too… What makes the 928 a real GT is its larger dimensions with much more glass for a better view from the cockpit. Our S features the more striking light units in the front bumper that give it a sturdier appearance. The change came as a precursor to the later S4 versions. Equipped with a beautiful, timeless Meteor Grey color scheme, the sleek coupe never gets boring.

Interior
Inside our Porsche 928 S, the revolutionary nature of the car is even more pronounced because of the many electronic systems. For example, an automatic air conditioning is standard! The seating position is nice and deep and the door panels are well stocked with speakers and elongated vents. Our “time machine” is equipped including super stylish reed leather seat upholstery. A color that’s carried through to the steering wheel, dashboard, roof liner, center/tunnel console and even the entire floor. Large 928 lettering in the door sills proudly indicates immediately upon entering which beautiful 2+2 cockpit you plan to board. An electric sunroof, electric windows, extensive electric seat controls; in terms of luxury, it’s all next level aboard the Porsche 928.

Technology & performance
And not just in terms of luxury… Steerable rear wheels in fast turns, a “dogleg” gearbox mounted above the rear axle and a water-cooled aluminum V8 engine contributed to the extremely innovative image of the 928. Our S has an output of 310 hp and delivers 400 Nm of torque to the rear wheels; 10 hp and 15 Nm more, respectively, than previous 928 S and even 70 hp + 50 Nm more than the original without the letter “S.” The growth in power was partly due to the increased engine capacity: from 4.5 to 4.7 liters. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h thus only had to take 6.2 seconds and the top speed of 252 km/h broke the 250 barrier for the first time. Our Porsche 928 S still drives like the best. Granted, it is no 911. But that’s what makes this classic extra special….
